Michael
...I have not only had tutees of mine pass desired classes, but I have also directly tutored students to 4s and 5s on Biology AP exams. Much of my style is student oriented and can change due to their strengths. I use approachable metaphors and similes to connect the student to the material especially as I focus on more abstract subjects from our day-to-day lives. Much of my teaching is conversational and focused on re-applying...

I have been studying Chemistry since 1993 when I declared it my major. Since then I have obtained a doctorate in the subject and have been working as a professional chemist in research and development. I may actually like teaching Chemistry more than I like practicing it and that is saying a lot! Looking forward to working with students at all levels!

Collin
...Midwestern University. I have an extensive tutoring background due in part to my tutoring in my undergraduate years where I worked with students struggling in Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics and Biology. I have gained a particular set of skills to work with students and make sure that the learning environment is as accommodating and efficient as possible. In my spare time, I enjoy playing golf, working out, snowboarding, and playing on intramural sports teams with...

Larry
...career is not for me, I miss the one-on-one interactions I had with students and helping them with their individual needs. I learned that patience, attention, and time will get almost any student anywhere they may want to go academically. While some students may not receive the accolades they desire to obtain, if a student begins to appreciate the path and process of learning by itself, they will find they are rarely disappointed with their...

Ali
...I worked in a pre-k teaching early math and reading skills for 3 years, and I have experience teaching first second and third grade. My favorite part of teaching is experiencing the Ah ha! moment. I believe any student can learn any subject, it just takes the right teaching methods and some patience, and it is my primary job to provide those. I hope to create an environment where students feel confident making mistakes and...

...to my own peers struggling with their calculus exams. Over the past year alone, I've worked with over 30 students, spending several hours each day to help them stay up to speed on their schoolwork. I specialize in many areas of math as well as computer science, biology and physics. When tutoring students, I draw on my own experience with learning the material to identify and address the obstacles they face. I believe that promoting...

Lisa
...formal tutoring services and academic advice to peers. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Biology and Writing. Also, I have helped prepare many students for standardized exams such as the PSAT, SAT and ACT, and enjoy making the best of the experience. I was a National Merit Finalist for the PSAT. I am a firm proponent of peer-to-peer learning and the importance of a strong education. I hope...

Rohit
...classes and was fortunate to help many students learn the principles of Chemistry. My strongest subjects to tutor are Chemistry and Biochemistry. My tutoring style is very interactive with emphasis on the student learning the basics of the subject which he or she can build upon. This may initially take a little longer but I have learned through experience that it helps students achieve continued academic success. On a personal level, I am married with...

Alexandra
...hundredths of a second. When I apply these mindsets to the settings of my work, I have a capacity to rapidly interpret data and make practical decisions as a member of a team. I treasure a strong sense of community and the ability of a group to extract the best from each member. I fully comprehend the dependence existent in relationships and the importance of forming connections with others. Through my role as a tutor,...

Ilana
...writing and editing and love tutoring in the humanities. My teaching philosophy is one of guidance rather than direct instruction, helping students to discover answers on their own. I am very patient and understand that sometimes all it takes to understand a difficult concept is to explain it in a few different ways. We all learn differently, so I aim to develop an individualized approach for each student in order to make the most of...
